I'm not following you.

When you open a webpage with flash content (lets say www.adobe.com) the flash content is viewed automatically

You could in fact go to www.adobe.com and re-download flash

news from alameda...
I have written a flash website and it takes 2 clicks to start it being responsive to the mouse.
I have read that it is a problem with IE. All I need is a fix.

This may not be it.
But when you author or create a webpage, you will not know how it performs until it is uploaded (I never really did understand why)
I have created flash content webpage as well, and it wasn't until it was uploaded that I knew it worked. (Which it did !)

Is this a problem with your computer's Internet Explorer or all Internet Explorers on all computers

If it is just yours
Either set all defaults in IE (under tools - Internet Options menu in IE)
Or re-install Internet Explorer under control panel add/remove programs - add/remove Windows components

Yes you flash (startup - loading) requires a stop or close command

As my java and web skills are not at the highest calibre, I would suggest you post a new message on the web forum http://forums.techguy.org/68-web-development/
You will get better info there.

solidone,

I've removed the content of your post as we don't allow links to "adult" sites. Keep in mind this is a family oriented site.

Just an FYI for future reference. Please do not advise posters to start a new thread in another forum. The current thread should be reported with a request to be moved to the proper forum.
